False color image of a landslide on Mars. The blue area represents the landslide debris, which has not yet been covered by the off-white Martian dust. The event took place in Zunil crater, a geologically recent (approximately less than 10 million years old) well-preserved 10-km impact crater and was most likely triggered by a Marsquake or a small impact event.
